Each course is expected to have at least 30-40 participants from the Brazilian public sector.

In addition, ISS has invited a current PhD student, Jacqueline Tobar, and an ISS PhD alumni from Brazil, Juscelino Bezzera (now UNB) to also take part in the programme, thus demonstrating our breadth of involvement in Latin America and commitment to emerging talent.

In the future, ISS hopes to host regular Brazilian public sector participants, via ENAP, to take part in the ISS MA in Development Studies, as part of their training and promotional trajectory.

ENAP’s role is to promote, coordinate and certify public sector training in Brazil.

Provocative key note evening sessions will also be given by Tankha (The Privatisation Debate) and Bezzera (Supermarkets and Certification for Global Sustainability) as additional components of the courses and MoU between the institutions.
